Application Summary
This design utilizes two hydraulic jacks and provides maximum structural stability. The jacks, located on each side of the car, are either single-stage or telescopic. The appropriate jack type is determined by the amount of travel and the project conditions. The single-stage jacks are popular for two-stop arrangements, while telescopic jacks are generally used for three- and four-stop projects.
Advantages
- No jack hole is required. This eliminates the cost of drilling and the risk of oil contamination.
- Accommodates front and rear openings in any configuration.
- Available for both low and high capacity cars.

Guidelines for determining overhead required:
For 1 Stage Jack:
- Car Speed = Up to 150 FPM
- Top Overtravel = 5″
- Bottom Overtravel = 12″
- Pit Depth = 4′ -0″
- Cab Height = 8′ -0″
For 2 Stage Jack:
- Car Speed = Up to 150 FPM
- Top Overtravel = 12″
- Bottom Overtravel = 10′
- Pit Depth = 4′ -0″
- Cab Height = 8′ -0″
One Stage Jack Overhead Requirement:
Minimum of 12′ -0″ overhead required for 12′ -0″ of travel and under. If over 12′ -0″ travel, overhead must equal or be greater than total travel.
Two Stage Jack Overhead Requirement:
Minimum of 12′ -8″ overhead required for 20′ of travel and under. Add 1/2” to 12′ -8″ for ever additional 1″ of travel over 20′ -0″
